New Code!
Discount is not yet up to the official 1.6.2 release, but I’ve got another prerelease for people who are adventurous. 1.6.2.pre2 fixes a defect that Mike Schiraldi reported; if autolink is on, a fragment like
http://a.url.is.here
ht
would generate
<a href="http://a.url.is.here">http://a.url.lis.here</a>
<a href="ht">ht</a>
because the autolink buffer was prefilled with http://… and my autolink check
routine was calling strncasecmp() without bothering to make sure that the input
was actually long enough to match (and thus T("ht") nicely overlaid the
previous “http://”, and strncasecmp() didn’t know that it was only supposed to
check S("ht") characters instead of the 7 characters in http://. Damnit.)
All the other feature changes from 1.6.1.pre1 are still in (better behaving
emphasis on pathological input, new test cases, new output format for make test
so that it doesn’t display output for individual tests unless one of them fails,
and some markup repair for where I misread the standard) so this is the New Code!
you’ve been looking for to liven up your cold dark rainy weekend.
PS: I’ve also started writing a manpage for the callback functions I implemented in 1.6.0
PPS: And I’ve started writing configuration support for shared libraries on Linux (hypothetically; the only Linux boxes I’ve got run a.out, baby, so I’m just guessing that the C compiler on modern Linuces uses the same (poorly documented) command line options that FreeBSD uses,) elderly versions of FreeBSD, and spanking new versions of FreeBSD. That library support isn’t in this prerelease, but might make it into the official 1.6.2 release if I’m feeling confident enough about it by the time I’m happy with the bug reports (or, hopefully, lack thereof) from the new features I’ve already put in.
